Product Manuals
Disclaimers
- Apple device not included.
Q: What is the warranty period for the HoverBar Duo?
A: The parts and labor are covered for one year under the manufacturer's warranty.
Q: Is the HoverBar Duo compatible with different types of surfaces?
A: The HoverBar Duo can be used with the included weighted desktop base or the adjustable shelf clamp. The adjustable shelf clamp can be used in a variety of locations, such as the kitchen.
Q: What is the minimum and maximum height the HoverBar Duo can be adjusted to?
A: The minimum adjustable height of the HoverBar Duo is 5 inches. The provided text does not specify a maximum adjustable height.
A: I don’t think so. It’s not lightweight. You would have to anchor it to something solid & immoveable or it would move around, especially with your iPad or iPhone attached. Definitely not in the front seat of the care. But it is great to use in the kitchen or at a desk or anywhere you will be sitting or standing nearby that you hook it on a shelf or bar or something flat & narrow and tighten it down.
Q: Does it work for Samsung phones?
A: I would think so. It stretches to grip the phone.
Q: Is the piece that holds the iPad made of metal or plastic?
A: A very durable plastic to clip the iPad & stretches out well. But the arm is heavy metal. If you use the base, it heavily weighted metal.
Q: What keeps this from tipping over when typing on your iPad?
A: You have to tighten every joint really tight. You need the tools they sent to do it.
Q: What size iPad can it hold?
A: I use my iPhone and I use my iPad 11 Pro M4. It might could do the 13 Pro but it would be navy & harder to tighten down. I absolutely love mine. I have the dark color one and the white one. My darker one was made prior to the white one & doesn’t have the easy slide off. It makes it much easier to change out. But I prefer using it clamped instead of free standing on the base anyway.
